Forget pulling all-nighters and chugging coffee until it’s practically coursing through your veins. You know what gets me hyped up? Earl Grey tea on slow sunny mornings after a good night’s sleep. Submitting an assignment early, knowing you’ve completed it to the best of your ability. Reading for pleasure. That feeling of limbless relaxation after a good workout. Unearthing all your buried interests and falling in love with them over and over again.
Repeat after me: success is not suffering. Success is nOT-
nice things:
- watching the clouds on long car rides
- the muffled sound of rain at night
- first day of the holidays
- making plans for new beginnings
- the smell of freshly baked banana bread
- making to-do lists and completing them
- warm sunshine peeking through on a cold day
- turning up the volume to your favorite song
- lying down on a field, surrounded by flowers
- being excited to see someone
